Approximate Shelf AT1 BT1 LOUISIANA DL6 Houston ET1DT1 CT1 ET2 EL6 FL2 EL7 FT 1 Edge MEXICO The results of the assessment by Papadopulos et al. (1979) were incorporated into the final conclusions of the overall geothermal resource assessment of Circular 726 (White and Williams, 1975). Based on their analysis, they assessed the thermal resource base to be 46,000 EJ and the methane volume to be 23,700 x 1012 SCF, with a thermal equivalent of 25,000 EJ. The resource base, according to their calculations, is then about 1,000 MW for a century. Even their most conservative estimate of development was 46,000 EJ, excluding the chemical energy in the dissolved gas. The Wallace et al. (1979) assessment extended the study to Cretaceous rocks north of, and beneath, the Tertiary sediments studied by the 1975 project for a total area of more than 278,500 km2 (including offshore areas). The area they accessed extended from the Rio Grande in Texas northeastward to the vicinity of the mouth of the Pearl River in Louisiana; and from the landward boundary of Eocene growth faulting southeastward to the edge of the Continental Shelf, including unmapped Cretaceous sediments underlying the Tertiary sediments, extending farther inland. They assumed a depth limit of 6.86 km (22,500 ft) for development and a lower limit of temperature of 150°C (300°F). As was the case for Papadopulos et al. (1975), they did not include the dissolved methane in their calculations. They estimated that the accessible resource was 110,000 EJ of dissolved methane, which was later reported by Wallace et al. (1979) to be about 59,000 x 1012 SCF or only about 60,000 EJ (see Table 2.5).PDF Image | Geothermal Resource Base Assessment
